I think the basic logic would be to first find the location in the string
of each break point between the sections, and then use mid() and/or left()
to get the sections of the page.
So, to get the header, you might do:
<cfset l_EndHeaderPosition = find("<!--ENDHEADERCODE-->", l_CfhttpVarName
)>
<cfset l_HeaderContents = Left(l_CfhttpVarName, l_EndHeaderPosition)>
